"I have to. I'm not very well liked by the townsfolk," Dark Link said, standing up and tightening his sword belt.

The young woman paused, speculating. "If you could stay?" she queried, observing him. His actions were proof enough that he was attempting to backtrack on his original actions, perhaps even make up for them. To give him a chance was necessary. Perhaps, if she were fortunate ... She wouldn't be quite so alone, for a time.

Dark Link hesitated. "If I could stay... Well, I can't," he said, pulling upwards on his boots.

Selena crossed her arms, shifting her weight thoughtfully. "What is it?" Dark Link queried, puzzled.
"Hold a moment," she requested, before murmuring something in the ancient tongue.

Dark Link rolled his eyes and leaned against the building, watching her, trying to figure out what she was saying.

Selena halted after a moment, before nodding in satisfaction. "That should hold for a few hours," she said, smiling.
"What should?" Dark Link asked, bemused.
She chuckled, gesturing to the warrior. "Look down. You're appearance is changed."

Dark Link complied, looking himself over. He gasped, looking over his arms and hardly believing what he saw. He reached into his magic bag and pulled out a small mirror, broken, but usable. He gasped, seeing the bright green eyes and brown hair in place of red eyes and black hair.
"How..?" was all he managed, looking Selena in the eye.

She shrugged, looking down. "I am fairly fluent in the ancient tongue, so I was able to access one of the illusion spells I've read about. Because, although magic can be used based on sole will, written spells work just as well ..." she said softly, tapping the cobblestone with the toe of her boot, hands clasped behind her.

"I...I don't know how to thank you," Dark Link said, looking in the mirror once more.

Selena flushed slightly, taken aback by his unexpected gratitude. Had no one ever treated him with kindness?
"You do not have too," she said softly, smiling. A shadow or no, he was still mortal. And anyone mortal, to her, would feel it natural to need some small token of happiness. Friendships appeared to be scarce in his life, nearly non-existent.
She flushed further, realizing that she was accidentally prying. Even if he did not realize it.
